Walnut Creek Foie Gras Demo

Date:
Saturday, July 02, 2005
Time:
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Event Type:
Protest
Organizer/Author:
Paris Harvey
Location Details:
California lawmakers approved a bill that will make foie gras illegal by 2012, yet many restaurants continue to serve this cruel dish because wealthy customers are willing to pay top dollar for it. That's why IDA started our sustained presence outreach and education campaign: to show restaurants that they will actually lose valuable customers by continuing to serve foie gras.

Join activists for an outreach event in Walnut Creek to convince upscale restaurant Le Bistro to permanently remove foie gras from their menu.
